Title: Method of generating a multiscale contrast enhanced image.
Inventor: BERTENS TOM
IPC: G06T5/00
Filed: 2008-12-10
Abstract: A digital image signal is decomposed into a multi-scale representation comprising detail images and approximation images. Translation difference images are computed by subtracting an approximation image at scale s and a translated version of that approximation image. The values of the translation difference images are non-linearly modified. An amplification image is computed at at least one scale as the ratio of a first image being computed by combining the modified translation difference images at the same or smaller scale and a second image created by combining unenhanced translation difference imagesat the same or smaller scale. Next, an enhanced multi-scale detail representation is computed by modifying at at least one scale the detail image according to the amplification image at that scale. An enhanced image representation is computed by applying a reconstruction algorithm to the enhanced multi-scale detail representation. The non-linear modification of the values of the translation difference image is steered by the values of an orientation map which comprises for each pixel on a specific scale a local direction of interest.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé d'actionnement d'une source laser. La source laser comporte un laser, configuré pour générer un signal optique, et une séparation de polarisation et une unité de retard qui sont couplées au signal optique. La séparation de polarisation et l'unité de retard sont configurées pour séparer le signal optique en des première et seconde composantes orthogonalement polarisées, créant une différence de trajet optique entre des composantes orthogonalement polarisées, et pour combiner les composantes orthogonalement polarisées en un signal combiné. Le procédé comporte en outre la modulation du signal optique par l'application d'un signal de modulation en longueur d'onde au laser de telle sorte que le signal optique modulé comporte au moins une première longueur d'onde et une seconde longueur d'onde, les longueurs d'onde étant séparées par une différence de longueur d'onde. La différence de longueur d'onde et la différence de trajet optique sont telles que les composantes orthogonalement polarisées oscillent entre un état en phase et un état déphasé.

IPC: H04Q3/00
Filed: 2009-09-29
Abstract: The access network of a telephone network comprising the access network and a core network is configured to respond to transitions detected in one or more access line, between an off-hook state and an on-hook state, by generating signalling traffic towards the core network. The load imposed on network equipment as a result of excessive on/off hook transitions is minimised by monitoring an access line in the access network to detect transitions between the off-hook state and the on-hook state. The transitions detected are counted and the quantity of transitions detected over a time period is determined. Where the quantity exceeds a set level, the access network is reconfigured to inhibit generation of signalling traffic in respect of the access line towards the core network. The invention could be used to deal with fault conditions, such as spurious on/off hook events generated in faulty lines, malicious activity or to police quality of service, such as in the case of a low-cost tariff where the number of call attempts over a set time period is restricted.
